Spectacular cast-iron columns in the style of the XIX century decorate the lower hall. The stairs are offset in the axis.

There are all kinds of "delicious" shows and culinary master classes. Upper floor - panoramic. The arrangement of the furniture is thought out in such a way that the guests can see Moscow well. In the center is a high three-meter fireplace portal. Furniture unusually bright colors do not allow you to leave the fairy tale, but the bar, made of real books, perfectly supports the general idea of ​​the institution.
